  • Campbell Takes Office As Canada's First Female Premier June 26, 1993| from Reuters
    http://articles.latimes.com/1993-06-26/news/mn-7402_1_kim-campbell Campbell Takes Office as Canada's First Female Premier June 26, 1993| From Reuters OTTAWA — Kim Campbell, a 46-year-old lawyer, took office Friday as Canada's first female prime minister in a bold bid by the ruling Conservatives to recover popularity in time to win elections this year. Campbell, the first Canadian prime minister born after World War II, promised to restore Canadians' faith in government by bringing in a new generation of leaders to deal with severe unemployment and soaring government deficits. She quickly moved to distance herself from her unpopular predecessor, Brian Mulroney, by slashing the Cabinet size by almost one-third and reshuffling departments to focus on new jobs, public security and maintaining Canada's health service. "It is crucial to close the distance between Canadians and their government," she said after her swearing-in. "Canadians want their government to help them, not hinder them, in the process of economic renewal," she told a news conference. "A smaller Cabinet is a more efficient and more effective instrument to discuss, to decide, to lead." Mulroney retired as Canada's most disliked postwar leader after almost nine years in office to allow a fresh face to lead his party into a general election that must be called by November. Campbell named her main rival for leadership of the Progressive Conservative Party, Quebec native Jean Charest, as her deputy prime minister and minister of industry and consumer affairs. Charest was also charged with regional development in the French-speaking province that is key to winning a majority.

Diet, fi tness, exercise, friendship patterns, sexual behaviour, educational experi ence, drug and alcohol use, community involvement, political behaviour, and so on, have all fa ll en under intense scruti ny. This scrutiny has resulted in the creation of a multitude of programmes, policies and interventions designed to target specific 'vulnerable popul ations' and li mit what are seen as ' high risk' behaviours. In particular, the perceived links between gender, ri sk and vulnerability have become key concerns of both policy makers and femini st researchers and acti vists in the fi eld of health care. Indeed, many feminist researcher and activists have applauded this population health approach a a practical tool for reducing gender disparities in health status. Unfortunately, despite this growing interest, the poli tical ramificati ons of targeting specific 'vul nerable' popul ations and 'at­ risk' behaviours in the context
